Pair Name | Thymoquinone, Temozolomide | |||
Disease Info | [ICD-11: 2A00] | Glioblastoma multiforme | Investigative | |
Biological Phenomena | Induction-->Apoptosis | |||
Gene Regulation | Up-regulation | Cleavage | CASP3 | hsa836 |
Up-regulation | Phosphorylation | MAPK14 | hsa1432 | |
Up-regulation | Expression | MGMT | hsa4255 | |
In Vitro Model | M059J | Glioblastoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0400 |
Hs 683 | Oligodendroglioma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0844 | |
U-251MG | Astrocytoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0021 | |
In Vivo Model | U251R cells were prepared in a matrix mixture (50% wt/wt Matrigel in DMEM) and xenografted to each mouse (1×10⁶ cells in 0.5 ml) under the back skin. | |||
Result | Our findings demonstrate that TQ can effectively cross the BBB and function alone or in combination with TMZ to treat glioblastoma. |
Pair Name | Thymoquinone, Temozolomide | |||
Disease Info | [ICD-11: 2A00] | Glioblastoma multiforme | Investigative | |
Biological Phenomena | Inhibition-->Autophagy | |||
Gene Regulation | Down-regulation | Expression | BECN1 | hsa8678 |
In Vitro Model | U-87MG ATCC | Glioblastoma | Homo sapiens (Human) | CVCL_0022 |
Result | TQ enhanced the anti-cancer activity of TMZ by inhibition of autophagy at the transcriptional level and decreased the colony-forming ability and NO production of U87MG cell line. |
